Morning Mile: *Stay tuned for starting date for students in 1st-6th* Kindergarten will start at a later date!
WHAT: A before school walking/running program designed to let students begin each day in an active, healthy and fun way.
WHEN: All school year for all grades
TIME: Each morning, Monday thru Friday from 7:30 AM to 7:50 AM
WHERE: The students will gather on the track and will walk or run as many as 1/8 of a mile laps as they want to or can.
WHY: To promote an active healthy lifestyle starting at a young age.
WHO: All students in grades K-6th are invited!
COST: Free
Ms. Best and parent volunteers will staff the program. The students will attempt to complete as many laps as they are comfortable with each morning. The laps will be totaled and the students will be rewarded as they accumulate miles. Providing children the opportunity to exercise each morning not only works to fight childhood obesity, it allows students to expend youthful energy on the field leaving them more likely to sit still and focus once the school day begins. It’s a win-win for everyone involved and Manatee Elementary is thrilled to promote fitness and all the great benefits that go with it. Parents are welcome to volunteer in the program. For information on how you can get involved, email Ms. Best at [email protected]
